Sasha rolled her eyes, "Look, Viv, your dad and I just felt a certain kinship with Winston. No strings attached. Having you is all we've ever wanted in this lifetime."

Vivienne, always the planner, said, "After I get married, you two will definitely feel lonely. Maybe having another kid could fill that emotional void."

Sasha snorted, "Just focus on your wedding. We can handle our future just fine."

"We've decided, once you're married, we're heading abroad for a long-overdue honeymoon, making up for all those lost years."

Vivienne paused before nodding, "Kids conceived on honeymoons are said to be happier, aren't they?"

Sasha was speechless.

On their way back, Sasha remembered something she'd been meaning to discuss.

"Oh, about that sigil matter I wanted to talk to you about."

"That originally belonged to a fading royal lineage in our homeland over two centuries ago. It ended up abroad, probably because a descendant took it with them, wanting to avoid detection. They split the symbols up, using it as their own family crest."

Vivienne frowned, "Does it have anything to do with ancient warrior lineages?"

Sasha shook her head, "No, but in terms of status, that family ranked above those warrior lineages."

Vivienne smirked, "That explains it."

Abigail must be a descendant of that lineage.

Only someone with a strong backing and a high social standing could mobilize the top families to work for her.
